I'd imagine he'd actually prefer the Mets over the Yankees, as his preferences are West Coast NL teams, and the Yankees are an East Coast AL team, whereas the Mets are at least an NL team. Not that I want the Mets to pursue C.C. 300 mil is far too much to have tied into two pitchers, and that'd burn all the money we need for a new bullpen and a right handed bat.
I've decided that I'd ideally like the Mets to sign Kerry Wood and trade for Huston Street (among other new bullpen faces, as I'm hoping to shove out everyone except Smith, Stokes and Feliciano) and then get Jon Garland. Bring in someone adequate to compete with Jon Niese for the 5th spot (though I'd ultimately like to see Niese get that spot anyway).
